TWO THE BIRMINGHAM NEWS SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23, 195? Dusting em Pittsburgh upends Duke, 26-7 Statistics ft btj Sports Editor LZiPP NEWMAN Georgia bows, 14-0- Greenies cash in on Newton runs BY KEN ALYTA DURHAM, N. Oct. 22 (IP) Pittsburgh's twice-beaten football team rose up to smash previously unbeaten Duke, the nation's fifth ranking team, 26-7, Saturday. The Panthers held fumble-plagued Duke, the nation's fifth ranking rushing team to 92 yards on the ground and ran up 249 themselves as they spoiled homecoming day for a crowd of 31,000. Pittsburghs one-two quarterback punch of Pete Neft and Corny Salvaterra added enough aerial threat to round 'out Pitts devastating attack.

Duke nursed a 7-6 halftime lead after a scoreless first period but thereafter the Panthers were pretty much in control. They moved ahead in the third quarter when Halfback Lou Cimarolli pushed over from a yard out, boosted their lead to two touchdowns in the fgurth quarter when Halfback Corky Cost also plunged over the one. Adding insult to injury the Panthers scored again 20 seconds before the finish when third-string Quarterback Darrell Lewis threw a 15-yard pass into the end zone to End Joe Walton. It was Walton who scored Pitts rst touchdown in the second period when he took a 36-yard pass from Salvaterra. DUKE, WINNER of four previous games this season, had struck swiftly after the first Pitt score, Quarterback Sonny Jurgensen throwing a 35-yard pass to Halfback Bunny Blaney who scampered 40 more yards for an easy touchdown.

Four times Duke lost the ball on fumbles and several other times its progress was impeded by bobbles which the Blue Devils managed to recover.

Newton put in a 20-yard gainer in this stretch, faking a pass. But from the five, with a first down, Georgia showed Tulane its finest defense of the day.

Wayne Dugas, a new fullback, got but two at right guard. The hole closed at right guard for Newton and he was able to get but one. He tried left and it yielded only one. So he called on Dugas again who gave the middle everything he had but failed to get over. The Wave was to be given a second chance at the score, it transpired.

Trying to get the ball out from the one-foot line Orr made three. On the next play Charlie Harris fumbled and Sardisco recovered on the seven. BY JERRY BRYAN Assistant sports editor, The Birmingham News Georgia did not have the game led by Gene Newton Saturday up to a 14-0 conquest for despite the fact that Newton no gain or not more than three yards. Meanwhile, the Tulane ends were rushing Young fiercely and forcing him to get his passes away hurriedly. Of the 12 he attempted, only four were good.

But two of them were to Orr i i aqainSt them mOSt Ot Trie 3 ATHENS, Oct. 22 answer to Tulane's ground afternoon. That added the Green Wave. Throwing only three times, is an effective short passer, the Greenies simply ran the ball down the Bulldogs' throats. They gained 262 yards on the ground.

This despite the fact Georgia played an eight-man line Take Wade for your coach Don McGugin UNIVERSITY, Oct. 21 Alabama and Southern football should be eternally grateful to Dan McGugin. This day of paying honor to a great line star, Fred Sington, and to a great coach, Wallace wade, was made possible by Dan McGugin. After seriously considerihg leaving Vanderbilt for Alabama In 1922, McGugin asked Alabama to take his young assistant, Wallace Wade. Alabama first balked at taking an untried coach.

They wanted a name coach, Dan McGugin power of persuasion won out when he said: "Take Wade and I'll spend the first week of Spring training with him. The first comment after Alabama beat Union, 12-0 in its season opener came in, This Wade has no offense. Disappointment eased when Wades semi-punt formation crushed Mississippi, 56-0, at the Capstone. Chick Meehans Syracuse, using the slingle wing, licked Alabama at Syracuse, 23-0, a week later. It was a convincer knitting together the thinking at Alabama that Alabama had to embrace a new offense.

McGUGIn Putting together the pieces Now let's go back and put together the pieces. It was destined that Alabama would come up with an offense to shock the football world. Hank Crisp, who had seen Hugo Bezdeks single wing at Penn. State while playing at VPI, taught the 1922 Alabama freshmen this offense. And Coach Xen Scott, failing in health, returned from Alabamas upset of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia that year, telling Crisp about the single wing Johnny Heis-man had used.

Russell Cohen, who was brought to Alabama by Wade as one of his aids In 1923, picked up pointers on the single wing while an assistant at Georgia. He learned them from Jimmy DeHart, one of Pop Warnars stars at Pittsburgh, a backfield coafeh for H. S. Stegeman. There had been discussion of the single wing on the Alabama campus before that Syracuse game of 23.

And coming back from it, Wade decided to put the new system in. ceisp Alabama used the single wing the next week after the Syracuse loss, beating an old rival, Sewanee, 7-0 at Rickwood Field. From the Sewanee game sprang the Alabama offense that was to tie Over this time for 29 yards. That gives the SECs top pass receiver a figure of 337 for 18 catches this season. Young was thrown for 32 yards loss in attempting his passes and wound up with a net of minus 17 for the day.

Garrard effective BOBBY GARRARD, Georgia captain, was most effective with 49 yards in 14 rushes. Orr carried six times for 23 and Charlie Harris six times for 20. Newton had help with the Tulane ground game. A1 Cottrell, a sophomore from Mobile, knocked off 61 yards in 11 trips downfield. Ronnie Quillian, watched closely by the Bulldogs, got 36 in seven and a fast junior, 35 in smashes 34-1 3 afternoon.

Newton accepted the challenge and led the attack himself with 97 yards on 11 carries, including both touchdown runs. This bright sophomore from Shreveport, 165-pounds of diversified dynamite, was the difference in the game. He snapped the scoreless situation after seven minutes when he ran a keeper, cut back into the middle, then waded parallel to the line for some distance before slanting downfield for 49 yards and the opening touchdown. The second counter, coming in the fourth period, was a sev Statistics MD.

Maryland Syracuse, BY JACK HAND SYRACUSE, N. Oct. 22 (IP) Powerful Maryland, ranked No. 2 in the nation, bolstered its chances of an Orange Bowl trip, Saturday by manhandling Syracuse, 34-13, behind a solid line that opened the holes for Ed Vereb, Phil Perlo and Jack Healey. Smashing over two touchdowns in the first period with Perlo' blasting six yards for the first and Vereb throwing 17 yards to Russ Dennis for the second, Maryland was threatened seriously only once.

The Syracuse team that upset Army last week clicked for an eye-popping 30-yard touchdown pass from Mark Hoffman to Don Althouse early in the second period but that strong Maryland line quickly closed the gap and helped Vereb score from the three for a first-half lead of 20-7. It was all Maryland in the second half to the dismay of a sellout crowd of 32,500 at Archbold Stadium with Healey romping home twice from the en-yard junket on which he employed excellent blocking by Tulanes great guards, Tony Sar-disco and Bryant Burnthorme Wave QOeS in hurrv along with Halfback Otis Gil- Tommy Warner, netted five. along three and seven in the third period as Coach Jim Tatum sprinkled his lineup with reserves.

From this point the Wave struck with Warners 20-yard run and Newtons 49-yard climax sprint. Elapsed time was 7:40 in the quarter as Emmett Zalenka added the point.

Chance for Georgia Chance for Georgia GEORGIA HAD ITS chance the next time Tulane got the oval. Newton tossed a wide pitchout to Gilmore and the ball went free. Roy Wilkins rushed in and recovered the ball on Tulanes 34. Dick Young flipped a screen pass to Jimmy Orr and with three men in front of him to give him a start he raced 16 yards. On the 17 the Bulldogs took to the air.

Young fired a long one to Garrard who made a Leaping catch as he sailed from the end zone. It was ruled out of bounds. Young was trapped by Bryan Rurnthorne for an eight-yard loss on his next attempted pass. Then he fired a long one to Wilkins who could not get his fingers on the ball. His next, intended for Wendell Tarleton, was wild and long.

One other chance GEORGIA HAD ONE other chance for a score before the half ended. That was one they manufactured on a drive from their own 20. Orr and Knox Culpepper ran a first down. Then Young got off a throw to Tarleton and he rambled to complete a 39-yard gain with Gilmore saving a touchdown. After Garrard had knocked off a three-yard gainer Young went back to pass again but as the Tulane secondary spread he picked a route and ran.

He raced to the 11 before Gilmore got him at the sideline. Georgia tried 'the ground but Tarelton and Orr could not move the ball and Young threw into the end zone toward Roberts. The ball was bounced around before Don Miller, Tulane center, snared it and came out 25 yards. No threats in third THE THIRD QUARTER was an evenly balanced session with neither team being able to tie two first downs together. The Bulldogs were trying to get out of their territory most of the time but Tulane got Into it with the ball in possession only once.

That was when Garrard sent away a nine-yard punt which John Caruso ran back 15 to the Bulldog -44. But after one first down Caruso punted out on the Georgia six. Georgia got a movement under way as the fourth period opened and got two first downs, absorbing a 15-yard roughing penalty en route, to the Tulane 47. But here Conrad Manisera fumbled and Tony Sardisco recovered for Tulane on its 45. Wave moves again THE SECOND TOUCHDOWN for the Greenies was sprung from this point After the Wave had been able to beat out only seven yards in three downs Al Cottrell punted but the Bulldogs were caught for roughing the kicker.

That gave the Greenies a first down on the Georgia 33. With new life thus extended GEORGIA WAS ALLOWED only seven plays before the Green Wave had immersed the Bulldogs. The Bulldogs received, ran one series for a first down but was forced to punt on the next. Bobby Garrards punt behaved beautifully by rolling out on the Tulane seven after a 43 yard flight. From here the Grennies rolled.

I eight plays they covered the intervening terrain to touchdown land. Otis Gilmore and Ron Quillian got the first span and then Tommy Warner, Gene Newton and Quillian knocked Bob Laughrey and Perlo each converted twice for Maryland and Brown added Syracuses lone extra point.

bination of Dick Young to Jimmy Orr, most effective in the conference, Tulane played a loose defense most of the afternoon, generally 5-3-2-1. But Georgia could not take advantage of it by running. They netted only 123 yards on 46 carries. Some schivener given to statistics figured that 33 times they rushed for a loss, twr Won Southern Conference championship. Rose Bowl 1926, Washington.

And it carried Wade and Alabama to four championships and three Rose Bowl games. Wades Alabama teams broke the spell of the West over the football world. No bowl game ever captured the imagination of the football-minded more than Alabamas first Rose Bowl victory over Washington, 20-19. And it stood up when Alabama was asked back to face one of Pop Warners greatest Stanford teams, the game ending in a 7-7 tie. Wade left Alabama after his 1930 team won the Southern championship and waded through Washington State in the 1931 Rose Bowl classic.

This day Wallace Wade would have liked to be back on the campus from which his greatest he sent his regrets. The day he was elected to the National Football Hall of Fame he was asked by the Southern Conference, of which hes the commissioner, to accept the award at one of the SCs games. Second Tidesman honored Fred Sington became the second Alabama player to be honored at homecoming for election to the National Football Hall of Fame. And the man who nominated him.

Bill Streit, made the award. Don Hutson, all All-Time All-America, was the first Alabama player honored. And there he stood, probably more scared than ever before, Fred Sington, rated in Southern football, along with Georgia Techs Bill Fincher and Mississippis Bruiser Kinard, one of the three greatest tackles the South has ever known. And the memories flooded over, of what football has meant to Alabama, begun by that stern Scot, WALLACE WADE, Its a name so heavily written into football it will stand until the stars fail to shine. Paul Brown likes Y.

A. Tittle Paul Brown, who has a lifetime coaching record of 234 wins, 39 losses and nine ties in college, service and professional football, named Y. A. Tittle, Bernie Moore's quarterback at LSU, the "best off balance passer in pro football" in a Collier's article. Tittle favors the running game because he works with the greatest trio of running backs in pro ball, Joe Perry, Hugh Mc-Elhenny and John Henry Johnson.

And this brings to mind one day when Commissioner Moore was talking about three of his great passers at LSU Y. A. Tittle, Abe Michal and Pat Coffee. My one regret now is that I didnt let Tittle pass more, said the Commissioner. He was hard to rush.

Capt. Steve DeLaTorre, who is earning his fourth football letter at Florida, is one of the best centers Bobby Dodd has seen in years. 1 have never seen a center cause more opposition fumbles than DeLaTorre, said Bobby Dodd, discussing linemen In the SEC. Hes a fine all-around center. And in the next breath Bobby said, Auburn showed me a great tackle make it a pair of tackles.

I like this Brackett, who is big enough to play a lot of pro football. And DAgostino is a fine tackle. I cant ever recall seeing a better sophomore end than Red Phillips. Forget he is a sophomore. Eddie Erderlatz.

Navy coach, thinks George Welsh, the leading All-America quarterback candidate, is another Frankie Albert, the boy who put Clark Shaughness and Stanford in the Rose Bowl and brought on this rash of football. Eddie used to watch Albert play, so listen to what he has to say: Albert and Welsh have so much In common. Like Albert, Welsh is never caught calling plays in a pattern. You never know what be going to call. The good thing about his unpredictable calls is that the defense is always guessing.
